dc.description.notesOutlines a series of welfare reforms and policies aimed at promoting the institution of marriage in the United States and provides a critical examination of the pro-marriage movement in light of domestic violence research. Three central arguments are raised. Firstly, pro-marriage advocates tend to misrepresent the safety of marriage for women. Secondly, young and low-income women are often at the highest risk of domestic violence yet pro-marriage policies tend to target these groups. Thirdly, marriage education and counselling evaluation studies do not adequately bolster the case for marriage promotion policies. Concludes that marriage promotion advocates need to engage with social issues like poverty and domestic violence before the goals of the movement can be legitimised.en
